Remove python-like string multiplication (#10293)
# Description Currently we support "multiplication" of strings, resulting in a terse way to repeat a particular string. This can have unintended side effects when dealing with mixed data (e.g. after parsing data that is not all numbers). Furthermore as we frequently fall-back to strings while parsing source code, this introduced a runaway edge case in const evaluation (#10212) Work for #10233 ## Details - Remove python-like string multiplication. - Workaround for indentation - This should probably be addressed with a purpose built command - Remove special const-eval error test # User-Facing Changes **Major breaking change!** `"string" * 42` will stop working. (This was used for example in the stdlib) We should bless a good alternative before landing this --------- Co-authored-by: JT <547158+jntrnr@users.noreply.github.com>
